Jesse Jackson Jr. The investigation of the Illinois Democrat representing Chicago for possible misuse of campaign funds has expanded to include his wife Sandi’s conduct, which has become a subject in continuing plea negotiations, according to two people familiar with the case.

Alicia Keys says she’s going through an evolution and now, after making her new album, Girl on Fire, she feels truly free. “Before making this record, in some ways I felt like a lion locked in a cage,” she says inComplex magazine. “I felt like a girl misunderstood that no one really knew…” (The YBF)

No matter the circumstances, it’s being said that all women want is a tall, dark, handsome, and powerful man…and that’s why highly respected retired General David Petraeus had an extramarital affair with his biographer, Paula Broadwell.

You didn’t ask for it, but now you got it: Facebook has a “couples page.” It’s basically content aggregation—a list of all of your interactions on each other’s Facebook walls, a collection of all of the pictures where you and someone were both tagged, and a round-up of your friends in common and “Likes” in common.

We love that Solange is an outspoken woman. And as much as she loves her brother-in-law, during an interview a few years ago, when she was asked about Jay-Z, she shut the Fox News anchorman down.

Bonus: There are subscription services for clothes, hair products, makeup and now…nail polish. Lacquerous is like Netflix for your nails. Members pay $18 a month and are sent three designer nail polish shades to paint and play with for 30 days.

Yes, this is uber convenient, but is this sanitary? We suppose it’s the same as going to your local nail salon and using the polish that’s been used by tons of customers. Right? So Clutchettes, are you in? (Refinery 29)
